A federal judge declined California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D) request to issue an emergency order to block President Donald Trump’s use of California National Guard troops and Marines within Los Angeles.
Judge Charles Breyer, appointed by former President Bill Clinton, instead said he will hold a hearing on California’s request Thursday before making a decision.
California sued Trump Monday, accusing him of illegally taking control of the state’s National Guard to suppress protests. The lawsuit calls Trump's move unprecedented, unlawful and unconstitutional.
